2 Key Terms Continued Payment at Maturity (if held to Maturity Date): If the Final Price is greater than or equal to the Initial Price, then, at maturity, the investor will receive the lesser of: 1. Principal Amount + (Principal Amount Percentage Change Leverage Factor); and 2. Maximum Redemption Amount If the Final Price is less than the Initial Price, then, at maturity, the investor will receive less than all of the Principal Amount, in an amount equal to: Principal Amount + [Principal Amount Percentage Change] Principal at Risk: Percentage Change: Investors in these Notes will lose up to their entire Principal Amount at maturity if there is a decrease in the price of the Underlying ETF from the Pricing Date to the Valuation Date. The Percentage Change, expressed as a percentage, is calculated using the following formula: Final Price Initial Price Initial Price Where, the Initial Price is the closing price of the ETF on the Pricing Date; and the Final Price is the closing price of the ETF on the Valuation Date. Secondary Market: Historical Graph: RBC Capital Markets Corporation (or one of its affiliates), though not obligated to do so, plans to maintain a secondary market in the Notes after the Settlement Date.

3 Sample Calculations of the Payment Amount The examples set out below are included for illustration purposes only. All examples assume that a holder has purchased the Notes with an aggregate principal amount of $10,000, a maximum redemption amount of 115% and that no extraordinary event has occurred. Example 1 Calculation of the payment at maturity where the Percentage Change is 2%. Percentage Change: 2% Payment at Maturity $10,000 + [$10,000 x (2% x 300%)] = $10,000 + $600 = $10,600 On a $10,000 investment, a 2% percentage change results in a payment at maturity of $10,600, a 6% return on the Notes. Example 2 Calculation of the payment at maturity where the Percentage Change is 10%. Percentage Change: 10% Payment at Maturity $10,000 + [$10,000 x (10% x 300%)] = $10,000 + $3,000 = $13,000, but the Maximum Redemption Amount is $11,500. On a $10,000 investment, a 10% percentage change results in a payment at maturity of $11,500, a 15% return on the Notes. Example 3 Calculation of the payment at maturity where the Percentage Change is less than 0%. Percentage Change: -10% Payment at Maturity $10,000 + ($10,000 x -10%) = $10,000 - $1,000 = $9,000 On a $10,000 investment, a -10% percentage change results in a payment at maturity of $9,000, a -10% return on the Notes. 150% Hypothetical Payout at Maturity Redemption Amount at Maturity (expressed as a % of Principal Invested) 125% 100% 75% 50% ETF Price Redemption Amount 25% 40% 70% 100% 130% ETF Price at Maturity (expressed as a % of the Initial Price)
